Animal Nutrition, Growth, and Lactation

Inefficient nutrient use in animal operations--from livestock farms to fish farms--is financially and environmentally costly.

NIFA provides national leadership and funding opportunities to support research on animal nutrient utilization and growth, food product quality and safety, and animal operations and the environment; education for producers and professionals; and transfer of management practices through extension and outreach efforts.
